I'm poking fun at the traditional position of "Blue's News Commenters" of instantly throwing the corporation to the wolves in any confrontation, except when it turns out their blind rage burns hotter for the "little guy", in this case Garriott.

There was one similar to this, about 10-12 years ago. I remember beta-testing it, not sure if it was ever released. Fly a ufo around picking up cattle and avoiding the farmer with his shotgun. Can't remember the name though.

Alright I need to call people on this. I've played a lot of MMOs. Of all of them WOW is actually the only that ACCELERATES you reaching the level cap. This is done by combining high quest XP with lowered total XP-to-level.

WoW is not the only MMO to have done that. You can zip through the once-hellish low and mid levels in EQ, and City of Heroes has made it considerably easier to get to 50. Oh, and lets not forget Dark Age of Camelot, what's the command, "/level"? Gives you 20 levels of xp instantly.
